title: A literature review: the impact of rotational stabilization methods on toric soft contact lens performance.
abstract: Toric soft contact lenses have been in the marketplace for more than 30 years. Over this period of time, substantial improvements have been made in the areas of lens reproducibility, lens material permeability, frequency of lens replacement, and availability of lens design and parameter options. This article will review the methods used to stabilize lens rotation and their effectiveness as reported in the literature.
